Cut and paste visual

Question

Hi I am trying to paste a visual from dashboard in the service to a word document but reaslised that it only seems to copy the visual with a white background which means that when the visual is pasted, the actual background is shown as white and text on the visual which is white can no longer be seen. Are there any plans that will allow the actual impage to be copied including all the visual formatting?

it doesnt seem to matter which. when i paste the visual from either a report or a dashboard the image copied does not retain all the original visualisation formatting e.g. background colour&nbsp;

NeilRoss&nbsp;are you using this feature:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/visuals/power-bi-visualization-copy-pasteAnd are you coping from a report or dashboard? (Sometimes people refer to a report as dashboard)
